If the NSA is running "sneak and peeks" the fact that your iPhone is hacked may be the least of your problems.

What's interesting is just how much data the NSA is collecting and what they're really doing with this. How many NSA targets have iPhones and what happens to that information? How it is analyzed? There's the real story.

Yeah, I don't have an iPhone..... I have Android, and as the article points out, it's tougher to crack than the iPhone.

As for the data, it's only a matter of time before the beans start spilling, and we find out just exactly what they're doing with it all.
 
Andddd ... you're surprised?

Brother. Here's what I participated in:

1. Prominent website: seeding (writing bogus) statements and questions from a long user list with different IDs on different ISPs. Looks like other people are doing this already so it eases other real users to do the same thing.
2. (Said this before...) Within months of each other receiving notices from two different Fortune 100 & 500 companies our data had been hacked.
3. Last IT position. Two thing I hated:
a) Autorenew of a license on a website. The premise is the user will forget and the renewal occurs seamlessly. Customer gets billed. Easier money.
b) Selling licenses on our website to customers to keep sales data. Every Friday, we ran a program that retrieved the licensed users' important data. My company then used their data to make contacts.

And the most current hoo ha I'm not even mentioning. Then add all the tracking that goes on.

Ah ... Bought my motorcycle over the internet 2.5 years ago from my yahoo account (I terminated the acct. - I used it for garbage stuff). Had to get it shipped here to the boonies. Something weird happened with some shipping company I was going to use, so I canceled them. Canceling was legit or I would've just eaten my losses. The phone rings and rings and rings. I ignore it and leave. The owner of the company calls and yells at my partner. I write a bad review on a major shipping site stating facts only. Suddenly, I'm knocked out of my yahoo account. I can't get back in but I can see the IP addrs. and reset the pwd. This happens maybe six - eight times. In the meantime, the bad review is removed off the shipping website. I contact the admin and he's really sweet (believes me) and sent me the email from my account asking the review be taken down and I was unreasonably mad and changed my mind. I didn't write the email and the hacking continues. I trace it back to Pompano Beach, FL. Coincidentally where the expletive has his business addr. My review goes back up with the lowest rating possible there and wherever I could with the added info about my ISP being hacked and I can't prove it without going to court (so I said make up your own mind).

Now, our medical records are available and you guys may think, so what? Uh uh. We've been in trouble. We are in trouble. We are going to be in deeper doo doo than you ever imagined. ANDDDDD I haven't even mentioned the evils of cloud computing :) or many other things. But life goes on.
 
as it will. we're doomed. cooked, toast, done in for, done hard by, hard by done. its over.
the best we can do in my opinion is
....
lights smoke.......exhales, sips drink....................lights smoke.........
begins to sign....
a deaf spook tip toed into a hearing...................
 
...and throw away all your electronic junk, every one of it, do manual fire-coal burning based cooking...live in a tent far away from towns that have radiating microwaves which mobile phones uses...
 
...and I KNEW it, like I knew NSA would have total access, hardly surprise me, its an american company, and ofc there's gonna be a close working relationship, ''all about control' cheeky assholes that they are...
 
wait a minute.........did you say to toss out all the electronics then suggest we use mobile phones in microwaves then something about ass cheeks?
wild guy
